Ilkay Gundogan speaking to TNT Sports after Man City's 2-0 defeat to Juventus:
“Every attack we concede is so dangerous and we are careless in the duels.
"Instead of playing simple, we overcomplicate things by not timing things to pass the ball or release the ball.
"We lose balls in transition every time, giving them counter-attacks. We have to chase 60 metres back and that's not what we’re built for. We are built for possession, to keep the ball and be strong. If you can't do anything in the duel, don't lose it, and it's not working out for us.
“We know exactly what is going wrong, we know the reasons. We haven't played bad. If you give away one chance and they score, it's not easy to come back.
"It's obvious what is going wrong, it's just trying to find that switch to turn things around. Even if we're not getting the results, I don't think we're far off - which maybe sounds a little stupid but that's what I feel.
"If we don't click, it's going to be tough. Only thing we can do is for every single individual to question themselves to do better, to sacrifice more and to contribute to the team so we can collectively get better."
